Using AccuDraw to Modify Elements
AccuDraw can be a great time saver in modifying certain
types of elements quickly and with precision. For instance
if you have a line selected, with AccuDraw active, just
click on one of the handles, type in a length value
and Presto!; you have a line that exact length. Have
you ever wanted to change the vertices of a linestring
from sharp to rounded. With AccuDraw active select the
modify element tool and data point on a vertex. Notice
the tool settings box displays the vertex type button
and the rounding radius field. To change between sharp,
rounded and chamfered just hit the key with the tilde
(~) on it and AccuDraw “bumps” the value between
the three. Set the rounding radius or chamfer offset
and data point. You’re done.
